Open Thread July 6

I love reading about the progress of the Angel Lake Station. It’s both that light rail is inching further along, and that I’m excited to go wander around Angel Lake. When I have a free weekend day, I love just hopping on the rail, getting to a station, and wandering around, aimlessly. I can, and do, do that with buses, but it’s not the same.

DUMMOCRETINS are liars DUMMOCRETINS are chameleons DUMMOCRETINS are wife cheaters DUMMOCRETINS are whores for big money DUMMOCRETINS are only into religion as needed DUMMOCRETINS are whores to the highest bidder DUMMOCRETINS are haters of people whom own guns DUMMOCRETINS are reckless with top super secret documents DUMMOCRETINS are against rules that stop them from being naturally slimy

If you belong to a minority group and you openly support a candidate for President who directly and routinely mocks or denigrates that group, do you lose your right to complain about it when others do it?

What happens to the causes of fighting anti-Semitism, misogyny, racism, etc, when some important leaders in those causes get behind Satan Cheeto Jesus? Are the effects individualized? Or do we as a society generally become less qualified to fight for those causes?

Puffy is a liar Puffy is a chameleon Puffy is a sitting a tree with Milos and not his ho Puffy is a whores for big money Puffy pretends to be religious Puffy is a whore to the Goats Puffy hates all people Puffy supports war by Republicans that are reckless and kill American Servicemen and Women Puffy is against using any intelligent life to make any decisions in the world Puffy is a Moron Puffy is brain dead

It’s not pretty or what your normal instinct would be for anyone but a Neanderthal, but think of it as Chemotherapy to Cancer. Chemo isn’t what you want to go thru but its the only way to battle the cancer that Right Wing Conservative and the fake Evangelicals are.

@5. Congressional DUMMOCRETINS ignore Chicago Here’s a thought experiment for you puddy. You get to be both Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell. Nothing else is different, just you swapped with the republicans running congress. Now, What would YOU do, to stop black on black violence in Chicago? Be specific. We will provide feedback how effective or successful we think those laws would be or if they could be enacted. It will be especially interesting to explore how the NRA would respond to your ideas. Or do you just want to attempt to cast blame the Democratic Party for the failures of the republicans in charge?

Sorry Puffy, aside from the equal value loss of a life, there is a difference between two individuals killing each other and a cop killing a black man when not in self defense.

One is a reflection of society and the individual and the later is corruption and abuse of power and down right genocidal.

Not sure how many are being killed in Africa or Asia, but you don’t seem to ever talk about that – all you want to talk about is Chicago. And you are trying to infer that Democrats really don’t care about a cop killing over what is happening in Chicago.

“The lawsuit alleges that Ailes repeatedly “injected sexual and/or sexist comments” into conversations; made “sexual advances by various means;” and said to her last September, “I think you and I should have had a sexual relationship a long time ago and then you’d be good and better and I’d be good and better.” ”

I’m sure fox will be fair and balanced in it’s coverage of this. Still, when I went to their site, they had nothing on it. Not even in breaking news. Weird.

Just to put an exclamation point on how stupid RepubliKKKlans are, they always double and triple down on their stupidity. How many votes against the ACA have they wasted their time on? How many useless hearings have they conducted against both Clintons? Planned Parenthood? Trickle down wreconomics? Ad nauseam. All they ever prove is how ignorant they are.

Clinton Email Phoenix’s largest paper, below the fold Denver Post, “FBI: No Charges for Clinton” Colorado Springs Gazette (deep red country) below the fold, “Analysis: FBI Rebuke leaves Heavy Cloud Over Clinton” Ft. Collin Coloradan, not on the front page WaPo, “FBI, Clinton Careless not Criminal” Sarasota Herald, (frothing red part of the state) “No Charges for Clinton” Pensacola News Journal (frothing red part of the state) not even on the front page Orlando Sentinal – “Clinton not charged but called Careless” De Moines Register – “No Charges but email use ‘Careless” Kalamzoo/Grand Rapids Gazette – Not on the front page Fayetteville Observer (NC) Careless not Criminal, FBI recommends against charges in Clinton E-mail Winston-Salem Journal, “Trump says system rigged for Clinton” (nothing like a tin foil hat headline) BTW, Saddam made the trains run on time or something Las VEgas Sun – Not on the front page’ Pittsburgh Post Gazette – “FBI: NO Charges Against Clinton” Philadelphia Inquirer – “FBI find Carelessness not Crime” USA today, Above the fold headline is Trump, “Casinos had Multiple Run Ins with Rules” Smaller headline to the left, “Clinton Not Quite in the Clear”

Yep, after a year of “Hillary for Prison” “Treason” “Above the Law” people waiting for the bus or standing in line for coffee in these swing-y states learned today that the “BIGGEST SCANDAL YET OF HILLARY CLINTON’S LIFE” is not criminal at all.

This from a church that for decades turned a blind eye to its own pedophile priests:

“The leader of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Philadelphia says divorced and remarried parishioners should abstain from sex and live ‘like brother and sister’ if they want to receive Holy Communion and haven’t had their previous marriage annulled.”

So while the mouth breathing contingent who never were going to vote for Clinton try to spin “No Charges” into, “She’s a Criminal” rational people who know the big outline say, “Wait, the FBI says she isn’t. Are you a conspiracy nutjob?”

@14 All of which is rendered irrelevant by your party’s choice of a nominee. Real smart, guys. Have you figured out yet that it didn’t matter whether Hillary was indicted? She’s the only alternative to Adolf Drumpf.

@19 In fact, efforts are being made to reduce Chicago’s violence. Police say, “what our research shows is that it’s only about half a percent to two percent of the population that’s responsible for about 70 to 80 percent of our serious violence.” That helps make the problem more manageable, because if the city can get these youths out of the gang cycle through outreach efforts, that likely would have a substantial impact on the homicide rate.

And with the chance, the one chance to maybe do some real damage, The “Winner” Republican nominee first went with, “The System is rigged” then went full Birther with “She bribed The Attorney General (who I guess in turn bribed the Republican head of the FBI)” and then went fully off the rails (trains on time, see what I did there) with “Saddam was good at killing Terrorists.”

Follow up on that thought, flashback to about a decade ago. Was it better to have the no-fly zones in place and a really bad guy as essentially the Mayor of Baghdad and a stable secular country and thousands of U.S. soldiers alive and trillions of dollars still in the treasury rather than a middle eastern country in full-blown civil war with the various Islamic sects fighting each other for control leaving an group like ISIS plenty of territory and recruitment?

@20 Meanwhile, the city government is undertaking meaningful police reforms, starting with a new police chief and a laundry list of reform measures. If Piddles every picked up a newspaper, he’d be aware of these efforts. When he posts about this topic in HA comment threads, all you get is the bleating sound of ignorance.

Roger Rabbit Commentary: What this suggest to me is that voters would have chosen an indicted Hillary over a racist, sexist, lying deadbeat blowhard who might morph into a Hitler. Now that Clinton is in the clear, it’ll be interesting (to say the least) what the next poll shows.

@34 I see a black guy laying on his back with two white cops sitting on top of him. I don’t see is a gun pointed at a cop. In fact, I don’t see a gun at all. Maybe he had one. Maybe he reached for it. I don’t know. I saw a cop sitting on a prone man shoot the man in the chest at point-blank range. The point is, Boob, white suspects don’t get shot like this. It only seems to happen to black guys, with dismaying regularity, especially in southern third-world shitholes like Louisiana.

Crazy Drunken Republican Uncle™:“This is the biggest criminal conspiracy in the history of the world. She sold our national security to terrorists! She’s a traitor!” You:Maybe they were just careless. Crazy Drunken Republican Uncle™:Fool! Apologist! She’s corrupt through and through! She’s in league with the forces of evil! She committed high crimes against our national security! You:How can you be so sure? Is there any evidence of such claims? Crazy Drunken Republican Uncle™:Evidence? Proof! PROOOOOF! She evades! She’s not cooperative! GUUUIIIILTY!!!! You:I think she’s just doing what all lawyers do. Crazy Drunken Republican Uncle™:People with nothing to hide, HIDE NOTHING! She’ll be indicted before the year is out! You:I think you’re overreacting. I think she was probably just technologically clueless, and careless. Asking prosecutors to prove their case without your help is not unreasonable. Crazy Drunken Republican Uncle™:She’ll be in prison by the end of next year! BENGHAAAAZIIIII!!! James Comey:“She was careless.”

DAYUM that R senile is really senile. Another deflection and train wreck!

Where is the hue and cry from Congressional DUMMOCRETINS R senile over Chicago? That’s what Puddy asked. You never answer the direct question. Instead you deliver BULLSHITTIUM responses changing the subject. Ineffective senile answers!

aside from the equal value loss of a life, there is a difference between two individuals killing each other and a cop killing a black man when not in self defense.

Another deflection by HHTL. Where did Puddy discuss the killing in Louisiana? Did a hanging human tea bag get caught in your throat HHTL? The Congressional DUMMOCRETINS are screaming about Orlando. They are not screaming about Chicago.

DAYUM, you HA DUMMOCRETIN fools can’t even stay on topic. Gotta jump all over to deflect from Congressional DUMMOCRETIN stooooooooooooopifity!

@19 and 40. Again puddy, how would you have congress stop ignoring Chicago black on black murders? You rail that they are not doing anything, what would you have them do? Be specific unless you are just here to shoot squid ink.

If @40 is your final answer, you would be fine if the republicans in congress did nothing but wail and moan over the deaths. I single out the republicans since they control congress, not the democrats. You don’t need the republicans actually try to pass any laws, just give lip service that it’s happen and some one else should do something about it? That reminds me of you.

@34 I don’t feel like watching someone getting shot. Call me squeamish…..so next time Boob (if you know that you are being recorded and video taped) scream out hey look it’s raining out, right before you pick pocket someone., even if it is sunny out.

Now – I’m not suggesting that something didn’t happen, especially when I don’t want to watch the video, but arent’ the cops a little too happy to pull the trigger today on any black individual, when a white individual gets a little less than a bullet?

Shouldn’t you actually have to see a gun first before thinking that he might have one? And one pointed at you?

Orlando and Chicago is false equivalency. Loss of life the same, like no difference whether you or I die or Ronald Reagan dies. No life more valuable than another…but circumstance of the death may be different that have a different outcome in how the death is taken (for lack of better word…and not taken as in taken from this earth).

After criticizing Republicans for politicizing the issue, Sanders conceded that the FBI was very tough on Clinton, and it’s the FBI’s job to be “objective” and “fair.” And that the FBI did “what appears to me to be a serious investigation.”

@60 I answere your question and told you why. You obviously don’t understand. Band I’m not going to play your little game. If you have a question with what I wrote then you can ask me and maybe I will help explain it bette, but otherwise keep stating an opinion of your own, you are free to do so.

But the military also stated, “while his crimes merit a court-martial, mitigating factors were considered, including the stressful environment . . . and Lieutenant Colonel West’s record as an officer and commander.”

Why does checkmate hate the military? Why does checkmate hate black military officers in high ranking positions? Why does checkmate hate black officers protecting their soldiers? Why does checkmate gleefully want American soldiers to be ambushed by the enemy?

A crazed DUMMOCRETIN killing 49 at once is different from 49 crazed individuals DUMMOCRETINS killing 49 individuals? They are still dead by guns. Unfortunately those 49 individuals killed 49 others butt to Congressional DUMMOCRETINS that don’t count!

A crazed DUMMOCRETIN killing 49 at once is different from 49 crazed individuals DUMMOCRETINS killing 49 individuals? They are still dead by guns. Unfortunately those 49 individuals killed 49 others butt to Congressional DUMMOCRETINS that don’t count!

@68 I would argue that accepting an Article 15, $5,000 fine, and involuntary retirement in lieu of a general court martial qualifies as “cut and run.” You don’t defend whatever principle you’re sticking up for by accepting a plea bargain.

Stocks resumed their upward march today, after yesterday’s one-day dip, with the Dow average gaining 78 points. So much for using Brexit to time the market.

On June 24, the day after Brexit, I paid $81.20 for Gilead, a drugmaker; today it’s worth $85.73. Man, I sure love FREE MONEY.

Now, Puddles might argue I was market timing. But he’d be wrong. All I did was buy Gilead when it was cheap. “Cheap” usually (not always) coincides with market declines. When the Dow drops 660 points in one day, and a stock you’re watching hits a 52-week low, chances are you’re buying a cheap stock.

On paper, I’ve made 5.6% in 12 days, which works out to 169.7% a year, or 1,697 times the return Puddles is making on his bank savings. Maybe this helps explain why he still works and I don’t.

@82, Hah! What principle? West admitted to wrongdoing and agreed to the conditions set forth in his Article 15 including permanently leaving the military. He could no longer be trusted to command. So he was asked to leave quietly. And he agreed to do so.

Oh Oregon moron, checkmate claimed Real American hero Allen West didn’t cut and ran. That was a total LIE. checkmate loves to LIE when it’s convenient for its silly arguments!

Once again R senile has a warped sense of cut and run @82, while thinking Chelsea Manning is a wonderful hero along with Bowe Bergdahl! It doesn’t matter what R senile thinks. That’s not what the Army thought! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

I guess guess there is one or maybe two good Republicans…but the two or three trolls here are definitely don’t fit that bill. You know the two here would either hide under the table or avoid discussing any of the shittyness of their own party.

someone who got drummed out of the Army for behaving like the villain in a bad Vietnam war movie.

Once again senility rears its very ugly head. checkmate claimed Real american hero Allen West cut and run. Allen West wanted to know who was trying to kill him and his troops. This is very lost on R senile because the mind is the second thing to go when you have white privilege as R senile has. Puddy posted the Politifact web site info above. Apparently R senile didn’t read it. R senile has reading and comprehension issues due to early onset senility we’ve experienced in the multitudinous posts of vacuousness. Blacks don’t experience the first thing to go!

The investigation into Kubly’s relationship with Motivate, the company that operates Seattle’s bike share Pronto!, found that the SDOT director had a conflict of interest. Kubly worked to have the city purchase the bike share system. Kubly is served as president of the company under its previous name, Alta. It was further discovered that he was contacted by city officials at the start of his employment in Seattle about any potential conflicts of interest. Kubly then continued to lead the effort for the city to purchase the bike share.

How does one know checkmate is lying… First the train wreck. Next its claims Puddy ran to Fox News. Well, It runs to Fox News first to “check”. Apparently checkmate knows even less because Puddy used the NY Times FIRST!

Now are those links from Fox News? Puddy even posted the court martial article. You can check with the cretin again checkmate. Butt everyone knows you sit behind your keyboard, playing with yourself knowing you have NO BALLS. Otherwise, we see that plea to the crazed databaze cretin asking for a PuddyLink replay! Go ahead checkmate. Grow some BALLS. You’ll be waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay ahead of R senile, well known for not having a pair!

Best i can tell, because puddy cannot answer a question directly, he blames democrats for the murders in Chicago, because they don’t talk about it, and their gun regulations are too limited and only deal with assault weapons. But he has no venom for the republicans who control congress who block gun regulations. Fascinating how his mind works.

“In the video, in the car, she says as Castile was reaching for his wallet, he told officers he had a firearm in his possession, and a conceal-and-carry permit. Reynolds says an officer then shot her boyfriend four times.”

He was black. He did what he was told to do. He’s dead. Where is the NRA?

Best you can tell worser? You have a preconceived notion which is a total lack of understanding of many subjects you try to pontificate from. Puddy lived it in Philadelphia. Puddy’s cousins were not that far from Move. They saw the fire and felt the heat. Puddy knows about inner city gun violence. Puddy brings it up here all the time. Where’s worser is like where’s Waldo? You have to look real hard to find worser because worser is just another DUMMOCRETIN in the mix. Not caring or speaking up. Then you post that above? EPIC FAYLE!

What have DUMMOCRETINS done for the inner city? You completely missed #91. It was a big PuddyHint worser. Seems FACTS just pass you by! The black pastor made it plain. You and your party SUCK. You and your party’s policies SUCK. They talk a big game butt nothing happens. Gang bangers killing each other. Nothing ever happens in the big cities. Schools suck. Minority girls getting pregnant out of wedlock. Drugs killing those who aren’t dying from gun shots.

Now onto your rant. Assault weapons are the only thing important to congressional DUMMOCRETINS. Seems nothing else matters. Those no fly lists were already attacked by the DUMMOCRETINS in the ACLU. Seems you HA DUMMOCRETINS can’t fathom that. Puddy already supplied that link. Apparently you could not process it!

Do you read anything from Jesse Jackson Sr? He’s from Chicago. Does he make calming statements or meet with the gang bangers? What does Operation Push do butt shake down companies with threatened boycotts? Where is Al NotSoSharpton on this? Can you think at all worser? Or, does someone need to show you the way because you can’t seem to ever find it!

It must really suck to be you worser. There is no compassion in any cell of your body worser.

Why do all these cop shooting blacks happen in big cities? Where is the training HA DUMMOCRETINS?

Remember that stooooooooooooooooopid female Seattle police officer attacking the black man with the golf club? Those actions have to be taught at the highest levels of DUMMOCRETIN led departments! And all HA DUMMOCRETINS do is blame the little people for the actions of the big people. And when Puddy brings it up you ridicule Puddy. Well what’s your ASTUTE observation ya idiots? This is a DUMMOCRETIN led city problem.

Remember the altercation the first year of Obummer’s presidency with Henry Louis Gates? No? Of course not. You all possess 24 hour mysterious moronic moonbattic malodorous memory malady! You all forget or have very selective memories!

Remember when Eric Garner was choked to death? The attending field sergeant was a black woman. Their captain was a black man. Yet what did HA DUMMOCRETINS scream, “White cops kill black man.” She was right there and allowed them to react as they did. She was the commanding officer at the time.

Remember Freddy Gray? What did R senile claim about the cop who was the van driver? Caesar Goodman was a white cop and DESERVED to be punished. R senile convicted Caesar before a trial. Yet when Puddy brings up Bowe Bergdahl who THE US ARMY has brought up charges on, his platoon mates claim deserted their post; and there were guys who died looking for the fool, R senile attacks Puddy!

Seeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee HA DUMMOCRETINS? It’s all about race to you fools. R senile is white Puddy is black! Puddy sees it differently. Puddy sees it as a cop problem. Puddy brought up the Utah shooting where a black cop killed a white guy. Go and ask the monomaniacal moronic moonbattic memoryless malodorous ABSOLUTELY clueless crazed cretin yellowishleakingbuttspigot absolutely neurotic low IQ arschloch for a crazed databaze replay! No hue and cry over that killing. It was just a black on white crime. That don’t count!

That’s why Puddy scoffs at you fools. This is a DUMMOCRETIN inner city cop problem. Doesn’t matter their color. The reason most are white cops shooting on black people is that there are more white cops and unfortunately too many black gang bangers. Other innocent black people are caught up in the hysteria. The Ferguson gentle giant previously attacks a store owner on videotape and morons like R senile discount that because a white cop answers the call to investigate and the gentle giant does not comply with police commands.

That’s the difference. Puddy been there and seen it. You just watch from afar!

Finally puddy give a solution to gun violence. “Puddy: NOPE you start with hand guns and work up. The inner city folks who own hand guns shoot up people.”

Puddy, the problem is your republican party of trump blocks handgun regulation. Why don’t you rail against the party of trump, the ones who current control congress? Where is your outrage against your party?

“I intend to use the Hillary defense,” said Sean M. Bigley, a lawyer whose firm handles dozens of cases a year involving national security clearances. “I really question how any agency can say someone is a security risk if the president of the United States did something similar.”

He added, “We’ve had people lose 20-year careers for doing less than what she did.”

PuddyCommentariat: The law of intended consequences! DUMMOCRETINS really want Careless Crooked Heilary to be president and who cares what the other outcomes are!

“It’s a clear double standard,” Drake said. “If you’re high enough up, you’re the presumptive presidential nominee for the Democratic Party, then you get a huge pass. The hypocrisy is overwhelming. My life was shattered. She gets a pass to compete to be president of the United States.”

Of course, DUMMOCRETINS thrive on double standards. The ends always justifies the means!

Keep asking worser @139! Congressional Republicans don’t control Chicago. And DUMMOCRETINS won’t take a shine to anything offered by them. Do you know who Bobby Rush is worser? Look him up! There is part of your answer worser!

Chicago has DUMMOCRETINS at the helm. They had tough gun laws butt you DUMMOCRETINS tried to make them draconian and the courts slapped those DUMMOCRETINS back!

@144, Honestly. Don’t bother. It will simply respond with a “non-fact”, also known as a lie. It’s specialty.

Of course the reason these incidents happen where they happen has to do with demographics of poverty, affordable housing stock, crime rates, and jobs. Blacks are killed by whites at 2.5 times the rate of whites, even though more whites are killed by cops. Plenty of people are killed or abused by cops in rural and suburban areas (Falcon Heights, Fergusson, McKinney, Prarie View, North Charleston). But of course more people are killed by cops in urban areas. More people. More cops. More crime. More concentrated poverty. More killings by cops. So obvious only a Republican could miss it.

“How dare your investigation NOT come to the conclusion we jumped to and assured The American People our donors would be the conclusion that Hillary was a felon a conclusion we were assured was correct without seeing any evidence because Hillary is evil so her very existence is a crime, harrumph!”

Oh Oregon moron @148 Puddy did come to answer that question. And Puddy has provided FBI crime statistics three or four times in previous PuddyMissives moronic twit when the crazed databaze deala brought it up before. Go ahead Oregon moron and ask for a crazed databaze replay!

Oh HHTL@146, No not really dude. Visit FBI.gov and look it up yourself!

Sux to be the two shriveled up peas in that pod; the Oregon moron and HHTL!

@148, Next up: a recently retired FBI janitor will receive a huge advance for his/her tell-all book revealing how the investigation was intentionally “derailed” by the powerful cabals of pot smoking naked hippie flower children who run the Justice Department and secretly control everything.

@125 “Assault weapons are the only thing important to congressional DUMMOCRETINS. Seems nothing else matters.”

You’ve got a point. If you want Democrats to solve the gun violence problem, they need to do what Republicans have falsely accused them of planning to do: Confiscate everybody’s guns.

But if we can’t do that, then at least we should confiscate cops’ guns, which would solve part of the problem. Cop violence against civilians is 10 times more than civilian violence against cops. We could save over 1,000 lives a year just by disarming the police.

They don’t. Small-town cops shoot blacks, too. There’s just more black people getting murdered by cops in cities because more people live in cities.

“Where is the training HA DUMMOCRETINS?”

That’s what I’ve been saying all along: Police departments are hiring the wrong people, and aren’t adequately training or supervising them. The whole police personnel system needs to be reformed from top to bottom.

@130 “The 99.999 % who own assault weapons as you call them don’t shot up people worser!”

Let’s at least keep them away from the 0.001% who do shoot up people. But Republicans refuse to do even that much. In fact, Republicans want to legalize open carry of assault weapons into churches, shopping centers, daycares, and everywhere else. Republicans want to have untrained vigilantes armed with assault weapons patrolling the corridors of our grade schools. How stupid is that? Clearly, voting for Republicans doesn’t bring us closer to a solution.

@135 I’m not a Clinton fan — I never voted for Bill and don’t like Hillary — but YOUR party leaves me no alternative but to vote for her. Same for millions of other Americans. That’s YOUR party’s damn fault. Blame YOUR party for that.

MATT CARTWRIGHT: According to the manual, if you’re going to classify something, there has to be a header on the document? Right?

JAMES COMEY: Correct.

MATT CARTWRIGHT: Was there a header on the three documents that we’ve discussed today that had the little c in the text someplace?

JAMES COMEY: No. There were three e-mails, the c was in the body, in the text, but there was no header on the email or in the text.

MATT CARTWRIGHT: So if Secretary Clinton really were an expert about what’s classified and what’s not classified and we’re following the manual, the absence of a header would tell her immediately that those three documents were not classified. Am I correct in that?

It is being reported that Congressional Republicans meeting with Trump today asked him specifically about Latino outreach knowing that if The GOP keeps losing as badly to that growing demographic they can’t possibly win the White House ever again.

Piddles might be interested in this. Somebody’s trying to do something to reduce crime and violence in black communities. Specifically, there’s a group of black activists in Baton Rouge who listen to police scanners and send people to make videos of police responding to crime scenes. One of their videographers captured the police shooting of Alton Sterling. http://tinyurl.com/hcmlq2f

Missouri political ads have a fascinating spin. The democrats run as democrats. The arch conservative republicans attack the less conservative republicans for being, wait for it… “moderates!” The republicans show imagery of themselves shooting assault weapons, and profess their undying love for the constitution, traditional conservative values, and religion. However nowhere in their ads do they commit to being republicans. They don’t seem to want to admit to being part of the republican party, the party of trump voters.

“…few minutes ago, you also stated that you now believe that Hillary Clinton is not nearly as sophisticated as people thought. Is that correct?”

Yeah, I think that’s fair — actually, no, not as people thought, but as people would assume about somebody with that background. I’m sorry, I should be clear about this, technically sophisticated. I’m not opining on other kinds of sophistication.”

“…Fortune also used Little Bird software to analyze the top 50 influencers of the Trump campaign slogan #MakeAmericaGreatAgain, and found that 43 of them each follow at least 100 members of the #WhiteGenocide network.”

“Since the start of his campaign, Donald Trump has retweeted at least 75 users who follow at least three of the top 50 #WhiteGenocide influencers. Moreover, a majority of these retweeted accounts are themselves followed by more than 100 #WhiteGenocide influencers.”

“This could be just a coincidence. White supremacists love Trump, and Trump just accidentally happens to retweet a lot of their stuff. Unfortunately for Trump, you’d have to be an idiot to believe that, and he’s running out of idiots.”

There will always be at least one idiot left. The self-loathing black loon, an idiot to the end, is now a full-fledged white supremacist.

Trump is “giving us the old wink-wink,” wrote Andrew Anglin, editor of a white supremacist website called The Daily Stormer, after Trump retweeted two other “white genocide” theorists within a single minute. “Whereas the odd White genocide tweet could be a random occurrence, it isn’t statistically possible that two of them back to back could be a random occurrence. It could only be deliberate…Today in America the air is cold and it tastes like victory.”

Consider: it lives each and every day in a world immersed in manifest scientific truth that makes adherence to bronze age superstitions like “young earth” and “creationism” laughable. But it struggles onward equipped with a cat-like reflex to reject non-conforming information due to “source bias”. Just wait. It will reject your sources. Only that allows it to survive in a world that literally refutes it at every turn. It simply rejects all non-conforming data. It justifies this with baseless claims of source bias. So you’ll get nowhere. Non-conforming data (aka truth) cannot penetrate. It’s a perfect mirror-like sphere of impenetrable stupid.

What are the insightful and valuable observations of Bob Owens in 140 characters or less that Jesse Jones might have found if only he’d looked?

On Trayvon Martin: “a violent, drug-abusing thug who appeared to get off on hurting people” “good people will arm themselves against violent young predators like Trayvon Martin” About Tamir Rice, 12 year old executed in front of his neighbors by untrained rookie cop: “Tamir Rice died because he made poor choices.” About the mother of Jordan Davis who was executed at a gas station in Florida for playing his music too loudly: “McBath has become a serial liar, and sadly seems to be more comfortable with her lies as time goes on,” More recently about police shootings and calls for improved firearms training for police: “I need more snot-nosed academics who have never set foot on a firing line telling me how cops should train.” “We’re without rule of law. Prepare for ANYTHING.” “When corruption reigns, revolution follows.”

Level-funding actually means 600 fewer positions, though, because of the rise in the state’s minimum-wage increase to $10 per hour this year and $11 per hour next year. Maintaining the number of positions would take $13.34 million. But the compromise budget bill lawmakers filed Wednesday night included $10.2 million for the program, which translates into about 1,000 jobs lost.

PuddyCommentariat: Soooooooooooooo in this case at Massachusetts, a government-funded program in a DUMMOCRETIN state with the same funding levels as the year before will be unable to hire nearly as many workers as it could before a state minimum wage increase kicked in. AMAZING!

This is also what happens in private business. Butt butt butt HA DUMMOCRETINS will claim otherwise! A store can attempt to increase their prices on some or all of its selling products to cover that new state or city mandated increase to payroll! Butt, if the store has been charging too little to begin with, increasing prices will most definitely translate to decreased revenue as customers seek some lower-cost alternatives. That’s the dreaded capitalism.

Authorities on Thursday said that Officer Jeronimo Yanez shot Castile multiple times during a traffic stop a day earlier. The state agency investigating the shooting said that Yanez and Officer Joseph Kauser, another officer who was at the scene, have both been placed on administrative leave.

Deputy Attorney General James Comey told reporters Tuesday he could not comment on the Berger investigation but did address the general issue of mishandling classified documents.

“As a general matter, we take issues of classified information very seriously,” Comey said in response to a reporter’s question about the Berger bind, adding that the department has prosecuted and sought administrative sanctions against people for mishandling classified information

PuddyCommentariat: Remember, those documents were relevant to accusations that the Clinton administration was negligent in the build-up to the 9/11 terrorist attack. They had to hide their negligence!

BTW did you know Sandy Berger, Loretta Lynch and Cheryl Mills worked Hogan & Hartson during the Bush years? Did you know that was the law firm that worked with the software firm that helped set up the Careless Crooked Heilary private email server?

BTW did you know Stuffed Pants worked clandestine for Careless Crooked Heilary while she was SoS?

According to a recently released Hillary Clinton email, Berger who served as national security adviser to President Bill Clinton, had been advising Hillary Clinton since her days as Secretary of State for President Barack Obama. His email correspondence with Clinton was stored on her private server and it’s yet to be reported whether or not he — a convicted thief of classified documents — had access to emails containing classified intelligence.

@74 Since when is it the FBI’s job to determine whether or not someone should be charged. Seems the folks who determine if someone is to be charged is a Prosecutor. And courts determine guilt or innocence. If it were purely up to the FBI our prisons would be populated, by the folks they know are know are guilty like their counterparts in the Gestapo. And how many folks did the Gestapo go after that were in the Fuhrers good graces? Perhaps Nixon got it wrong with his if the President does it it’s not illegal. If he’s only known if the Secretary of State does it it’s not illegal, perhaps that is why Kissinger did so well.

@79 The Army should have quietly medically retired Berghdahl. They frankly can no longer do an Article 15, so the best outcome would be quietly pay him back pay, and show the man the door. Only now they can’t do it quietly, so they may actually have to do a court martial that the Prosecutor may actually loose. How Army Prosecutors hate to loose especially when it’s become so political as that tends to end careers. Bet a Army Prosecutor is thinking I should have pushed for a quiet medical discharge. As he’s told in the O club you should have gone for the easy discharge, and not sweated the back pay. But nope we got a button counter or two in charge of this one, and costing the American tax payer a chunk of change. Obama had the right idea throw a parade, welcome his home, throw him on the circuit, give em some medals, and quietly do the right thing and retire the man. Someone in the chain of command got the memo, but didn’t like the memo and is a button counter..can’t let this guy get that back pay. He’s gotta pay!

@81 Article 15 is not a criminal conviction. It’s part of the UCMJ which is a unique animal. The military is also political, forget to salute the wrong officer at the wrong moment, and that asshole doesn’t like you it can mean a long prison sentence, unless your commander covers your ass with an Article 15. Which tends to piss off those kind of jerk wad officers. You don’t show up to work or are really late you might get fired. anyone in the military you can go to the brig. Doesn’t matter the reason why you were late it can be a Criminal offense and the guy you work for will determine that. Your boss at work able to have you thrown in jail or prison for two or three years because you didn’t show up for work?

@82 And if Mr West or any other military member is you client and a Article 15 is offered what is your advice then Counsel? My bet if I was a fly in the room is you would advise the man to take Article 15. Or seriously consider taking it before declining and taking the chance the Prosecutor will proceed with Article 15 where you don’t know if you can get the man off with a Jury of his peers who will be Ltcs, Cols and Generals. Though if you win you will be an up and coming military defense attorney. Probably get yourself an assignment to Gitmo to handle some of them prisoners being held. What a prize.

@84 Could be your right. Could be your going to get a lot more chances to buy low, The British Pound is way down. The British political scene is in tatters, and the British are in a political crises with no leadership in either major party and no near political solution. So they muddle on and the EU muddles on, and the muddle will continue, and the economy just doesn’t like this kind of muddle. The pound has not found the bottom, stocks in Europe haven’t found the bottom. Has wall street found the bottom probably not.

@85 I do believe we should insist most police doing their usual job do not need to be armed. Doubt we will implement this sensible solution. Nope we will remain in the same circular pattern. With cops becoming ever more armed, and scared.

Cops our good guys with guns. Of course Dallas messes with all our myths. And the whole city is shut down. Could be bombs, but you citizens just stay at home we are not curtailing any rights, please rat out your neighbors.

@112 Now if you will acknowledge to some Chelsea is a war hero. The disparate treatment of Manning to Clinton should concern you. Whistleblow on this transparent administration and you get 35 years. Have your own server as Secretary of State hey sweetheart come be my replacement. You go girl and not directly to Leavenworth. Chicago politics at its finest!

@119 And as Commander in Chief at the whiff of scuttlebutt that the Army wasn’t going to accept him as a hero and put him on the dog and pony show as a hero, one or more Generals should have been quietly asked to retire. That is politics the Harry Truman way.

@144 Like stating Mexican food is from Mexico you are a bit off on the cultural part of the issues. Most of what we call Mexican food is a actually Tex Mex. Our version of Mexican food is too dependent on meat. Particularly beef when the most likely meat a Mexican family is going to eat is poultry, and probably only a few meals a week. There are parts of the country where the majority population is black and they live on farms. Like the Missippi Delta, Parts of Georgia. There are some shootings, but as in most rural areas they are relatively rare events. And Police shootings are rarer. Still in these areas and you are dealing with the local Sheriff or Deputies one is careful whether one is black or could be categorized as white trash. As you could be dealt with harshly. The violence does seem to be much more an urban event. Not all American cities have Democrats in charge, and even then their policies can’t be defined as purely Democratic or Republican. Politicians of both parties tend to operate the same way in local politics. Each party political machines operate in similar manners, though much weaker than in the past.

@148 there is a major disconnect here. The Missippi Delta has been and continues to be one of the poorest parts of the United States it’s predominately rural. There is some crime, and that is caused in part by the poverty. Yet it is not a particularly violent area. There aren’t a whole lot of cops. Yet using your theory of poverty and crime there should be lots of cops, and lots of violence and more and more cops and more violence yet that is not the reality of the Delta. Must be the Mississippi mud.

@155 Won’t stop all of them. It will definitely stop some as it’s a lot more work and ones arms get tired when having to use a billy club, and not looking at a case where an officer kills a suspect as the failure it is.

President Barack Obama addressed the shootings from Warsaw, Poland, where he’d been attending a meeting with NATO officials. “There has been a vicious, despicable, and calculated attack on law enforcement,” he said. “I think I speak for every single American when I say that we are horrified.”

The comments on Dallas are all over the spectrum, but these resonated with me.

I question the judgement of a cop who kills an unarmed man. I question the thought process of those who think killing cops is the right response. Both need to be held accountable.

The people who shot and killed the police officers today need to be brought to justice. The police officers who have recently shot and killed people in different situations need to be arrested and brought to justice. The standard needs to be that no one is allowed to indescriminantly kill another person, period.

There are two who are never in their right mind. R senile is senile so sometimes one wants to give it a pass, butt then the vitriolic vehemence causes sane people to pause.

QPPS is another story. The amount of shit in the pressure packed granite encased neanderthal shaped cranial orifice from drinking its stupid solution causes incessant spam and hatred of men in uniform. Military as well as police are hated by QPPS. The shit pressure is so extreme that it also spews racial venom just about every month!

The death toll is now five Dallas police officers dead! R senile and QPPS cheered their deaths above.

How sick does a libtard really need to get to finally be ostracized by their fellow HA DUMMOCRETINS here? Come on, cheering the deaths of innocent police officers protecting the #blacklivesmatter gang so they could be walking down the Dallas streets? Some twits below are siminlar to how QPPS and R senile think here:”

“Next time a group wants to organize a police shoot, do like Dallas tonight, but have extra men/women to flank the Pigs!”

You see his panics like muslimsare the latest great tasting DUMMOCRETIN jelly spread on libtard toast! It used to be blacks and gays, butt DUMMOCRETINS know they can do and say anything about blacks and gays and these two LIV groups will still gladly show up every November and vote DUMMOCRETIN!

“He said he was upset about the recent police shootings,” Brown said during a Friday morning news conference. “The suspect said he was upset at white people. The suspect stated he wanted to kill white people, especially white officers.”

PuddyCommentariat: Well QPPS @206, seems your wish came true. It was a cop hating DUMMOCRETIN after all!

You and worser can scream all you want. Yours and R senile’s comments above prove whom you really are. worser is just another libtard fool who doesn’t comprehend libtard hate. worser always gives it a passing grade. Seems the worser passing grade today is 85!

I wonder if the republicans in congress will have a moment of silence over this before they go back to desperately trying to find something they can hang on Hillary and ignoring Obama’s supreme court nomination.

Paul Ryan’s Moment Of Silence For Orlando Shooting

After the deadliest mass shooting perpetrated by a single gunman in U.S. history, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) called for a moment of silence at 4 p.m. on Monday to “honor the victims.”

@242, Times like these are when it doubles down on partisanship. – blaming all the shootings on “libbies” and Democrats – falsely accusing others of “laughing” at murders – singling out Democrats for inadequate response

– blaming all the shootings on “libbies” and Democrats Puddy provided the links as proof Oregon moron. Sux to be you!

– falsely accusing others of “laughing” at murders There is no FALSENESS above. Their own words condemn themselves. Did you actually read any shooter condemnation above? Did you see how QPPS ran from its commentary to try and pin the blame on Puddy, the #alllivesmatter person here? Apparently reading is not fundamental to you!

– singling out Democrats for inadequate response Where did Puddy mention Democrats? Puddy said HA DUMMOCRETINS never condemn their own for the natural nasty commentary that flows from the fingers of other HA DUMMOCRETINS.

Wow the Oregon moron discarded the Dr Obnoxious script and is reading Puddy again. Must be that LIV moniker struck a vein! Did you see how fast #BLM came out to dispel the Black Power Political Organisation on Facebook? NO,? well you choose to ignore FACTS!

“#‎BlackPower‬! ‪#‎BlackKnights‬! Sniper Assassins Take Down Five Police Officers! And More Will Be Assassinated In The Coming Days! Do You Like The Work Of Our Assassins? Get Your Own Sniper Rifle And Join Our Thousands Of Sniper Assassins Worldwide In The Fight Against Oppression!”

Could be the Oregon moron loves living in the cocoon man cave in the basement of mommy’s home staying DUMB as evah?

Or as people are beginning to realize about the Oregon moron; its “intelligence” is just a crumbling facade for real political stoooooooooooooooooopidity?

they wrote: “Don’t worry my people! Justice will be served for Alton Sterling!”

Five policemen are dead and not one HA DUMMOCRETIN has condemned their killings. 5 families in turmoil in a city not involved in Alton Sterling’s death! 5 families in turmoil in a city not involved in Philando Catile’s death!

Another poster: “We contacted the police chief Carl Dabadie Jr. He already know what will happen to him, his wide Carla Settoon Dabadie, and his two sons, if he don’t do what we want.

“He wanted to kill officers, and he expressed killing white people, he expressed killing white officers,” Brown said. “He expressed anger for Black Lives Matter. None of that makes sense, none of that is a legitimate reason to do harm to anyone, so the rest of it would just be speculating on what his motivations were. We just know what he said to our negotiators.”
